AOC admitted to getting access to press passes at the Dakota Access pipeline protests at Standing Rock Indian Reservation in a 2016 Facebook Live video.

A Facebook user asked her about what media had been present.

“We tried to get press passes and at the time they wouldn’t give them to us,” AOC’s friend, actress Maria Swisher, says on tape.

That didn’t stop the then-bartender.

“We had access to press passes. Like we had media level. We were recognized as media. Yeah,” Ocasio-Cortez clarifies.

You can always tell if it's an actual quote by her if it has "like" in it.

This is how the rich, famous, powerful, and the excessively self important become Darwin Award nominees.

Her district has one of the largest concentrations of illegal aliens in the country which you can bet are voting thus her “surprise win”. That’s why she went to the border and did that whole performance. Illegal aliens are “her people”.

You gotta give her credit. She’s a force of nature. Bulldozed Nancy and anyone in her way.

Trump should make her an Ambassador to some place harmless like Greenland (who cares if it is part of Denmark?) s/

The Communist organizer for that protest was Judith LeBlanc. Just about every left-wing protest has one.
